Arkansas Tech University has announced it will conduct three volleyball camps on the Tech campus this upcoming summer, according to Golden Suns head coach Kristy Bayer.

Among the volleyball camps this summer are a Specialty Camp, an Advanced Camp and an All-Skills Camp.

The first camp is a one-day Specialty Camp, which will be held on July 12 and is open to players looking to develop their full potential in their chosen specialized position: setter, defensive specialist/libero and attacker. The cost of the camp is $65 per camper. The camp will provide players the chance to practice and refine their skills in their specific specialized position.

Following the Specialty Camp, Tech will conduct a one-day Advanced Camp for volleyball players in grades 9-12 on July 13. The cost of this one-day camp is also $65 per camper. This camp is designed to meet the needs of the advanced to intermediate volleyball player with at least two years or more of organized game experience. This camp is best suited for a player who has played at the high school and/or has had club-level volleyball experience.

The final Tech volleyball camp is a three-day All-Skills Camp that will run from July 20-22 and is recommended for anyone entering sixth through 12th grade. The cost of this camp is $230 for overnight campers and $180 for commuter campers. Commuter campers will receive all meals except breakfast at the camp.

Players who attend this camp will receive in-depth individualized instruction emphasizing skill improvement and maximum number of contacts. The players will be divided according to skill level and the camp will touch on all skills, as well as the opportunity to play in a team-like setting.
